## Cross-signed versions

2 certificate(s) in the CCADB have the same subject and public key as Amazon Root CA 1 but a different issuer. A server can send one of them so that clients which trust the issuing root, but not Amazon Root CA 1, can still build a chain.

## What happens when it expires

Amazon Root CA 1 is valid until 2038-01-17, about 11.2 years after this data snapshot (2026-11-10). From that day, browsers and operating systems that check trust-anchor expiry stop accepting chains that end at this root, so any certificate that can only chain to it fails validation. Android is a known exception: it does not enforce the expiry date of trust anchors.
